If the law is passed, two options are possible:
- we might need to stop offering preset servers to the EU users.
- we will not need to change anything - this is the most likely outcome.
Our operations are always consistent with our Privacy Policy (https://simplex.chat/privacy), and we would rather shut down than do anything that contradicts this agreement with our users. (2/2)
Our users asked many questions about Chat Control, as discussions were restarted in the EU this week.
SimpleX Chat is an open-source app where users control the code and the servers they use.
Therefore it is impossible to implement any client-side scanning, and it will not happen. (1/2)

Ho fatto un tutorial su @delta@chaos.social, un sistema di messaggistica istantanea libero e privato basato sulle e-mail, ma con un'esperienza utente molto simile a WhatsApp, se non migliore.

The more time passes, the more aggressive #YouTube gets with third party clients (see @FreeTube@fosstodon.org having to make new workarounds every month or so and see the dozens of dead @invidious@social.tchncs.de / Piped instances) and downloaders. As a viewer, it's probably best to start archiving channels you care about offline. As a YouTuber, it's probably best to start mirroring your videos elsewhere, like on @peertube@framapiaf.org and Odysee.

I also released an article about a federated instant messenger I'm working on with some friends. For now it doesn't say much other than a lengthy rant about existing FOSS messengers.

My new #website is finally up! Now with a new aesthetic I dubbed "Equinox", inspired by #Y2K / #vectorheart designs of the past. I also made an article briefly describing what's new and the #design inspirations.
